REMO Bombs Kenny Scharf’s Mural, Again
Following the mid-blizzard bombing of Kenny Scharf’s mural on Houston and the subsequent “fix” by his anonymous friend, another NYC snowfall has brought another feat of vandalism. And there it is. (Photo: Josh Pope)

if kenny wants some graf cred he should go painting over every REMO he sees, otherwise this is about the wackest beef i've seen in a really long time. REMO is unoriginal, kenny is a crybaby, and i really have no room to talk but i'm going to anyway
haha, kenny shoulda kept his mouth shut.
"kenny shoulda kept his mouth shut".
sounds like the same chilidish shit you hear over and over again.
i don't know kenny or these other dudes but seems like there are plenty of blank walls.
if your goal is "beef", well, to me that's corny. dude just wants to paint.
no walls are safe. put something up outside, expect someone to get up on it. that's just how it is.
no one should bitch. it's a wall with easy public access that gets attention. graff writers want there name to be seen. houston & bowery is a perfect place to get up. whether a blank wall, or one with scharfimals on it.
it's not real beef, it's more of a slap in the face with a glove (which is even funnier).
keep it up vandals.
It's funny how good art is rarely vandalised. Even taggers respect quality, which is probably why this work is targeted.
I don't see how this is complicated
Clearly, Taggers are best described as ignorant borderline retarded. They will always be poor, angry and invisible no matter how many tags they put up.
It seems to me that 'taggers' have some unwritten law about how they operate. Clearly, they believe any wall is their's to use as canvas- whether it's painted or not. The thing is…although that's certainly their prerogative, doesn't it undermine the very purpose of creating art? I mean, essentially, they just waste their time and energy by coloring a wall they know will get written over later. Kind of defeats the purpose, doesn't it? What's the point of painting if no one will benefit from what you put up? If no one will see it because some other d-bag comes along and ruins it? EVERY creation deserves cred– no matter what. For a tagger or artist- defacing someone else's art is the same as defacing your own.
you fuck'n love it! keep on jock'n! CS BTB!!
Bottomline, The taggers got no skills. Man with a can can create or destroy. Remo is like a little boy waiving his one inch pinch in front of John Holmes. He oughta just leave it in his pants.
defacement is subjective art is subjective i love seeing shit tagged up i like the "contrast" just shut the fuck up and stop complaining.
is there any progression to what kenny does? the same shit for over twenty years?and everyone with their high standards on graffiti, what the fuck! its graffiti! you put your name on a wall, any wall, anywhere. what else matters?
ALL YA NIGGAS IS PUSSY WORD TO ALLAH
Your an idiot. "Taggers". lmao. Go do somethin constructive or creative. Maybe you won't be so judgemental. Next———->
It's not about beef. It's more like a fuck you type of thing. My opinion.
HAHAHAHAHAHAAA! Gotcha!
Kenny where you at? Not gonna respond to every post again? IMHO boux is exactly right, unless Kenny starts lining REMO then this isn't beef. At least his bomb looks a little better this time around I guess.
I guess my comments got taken down– must have hit a nerve- buffed again– golly Mr. Dillon- clayton patterson
No one's comments have been taken down. You sure you're looking in the right place? I see it here: http://bit.ly/ikyPAA
FAR OUT
I have looked and did not see it– was up yesterday- will look again- where would I find yesterdays January 13th comments?
sorry– I looked and did not find it– I came back and I re-read your comment- and then saw the link– yes it is still up– thanks- maybe Kenny did not find it either as he did not comment- clayton
No worries Clayton! Hope all is well.
I know some pretty educated "taggers". Your just a herb.
This is nothing against Kenny.. This is straight Fuck You writing, nothing more. There's no beef here – just a terribly ugly wall that needed some Fuck You on it. That is all. It'll be replaced tomorrow.
AMAZE, where are you?
20 years of no progression?? Remos had the same fill in for 20 years as well…Kenny was a bomber but turned it into a lucrative career…Do your research…Thats Kennys wall Remo….Him and Keith and La2 had that wall 20 plus years ago..Stop jocking for fame….Now come punch out my wood teeth…
